The dynamic compressive properties of 2024 aluminum matrix composites reinforced with 40 and 50vol.% SiC paticles (SiCp/2024Al composites) were investigated at various strain rates ranging from 1250 to 2500s −1 using split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB). The results showed that the flow stress was strain-rate sensitive. The composites displayed different deformation mechanism at various strain...
